Overview

Service was friendly, not pretensious and food was amazing. Dry meat selection was mouthwatering and wine selection was very good with reasonable price. Highly recommended this restaurant. My friend said that she will bring her Italian friend next visit.

Traditional Italian dishes are prepared using the very freshest ingredients on the Diciannove In The City menu. Fresh handmade pastas include lobster spaghetti, seasoned with thyme and fresh tomato, and seamorza cheese and sundried tomato stuffed ravioli. Classic antipasti dishes are given bold makeovers, such as grilled octopus with cream potatoes, and Diciannove's specialty burrata, with grilled courgette and balsamic vinegar. Carefully selected sharing plates include rosemary focaccia, served with olive oil, and fried calamari, with proscuitto ham.

Desserts at Diciannove In The City London are timeless classics, ranging from tiramisu to decadent chocolate mousses. As well as a selection of fine wines and grappas, a range of cognacs and armagnacs provide a smooth digestif.

Italian elegance and culinary flair are served up at Diciannove In The City Blackfriars, just 2 minutes’ walk from Blackfriars Tube Station.

A very good dining experience. the restaurant was quiet with a good ambience. The food was excellent value for the money we paid and there was sufficient variety in the set menu for our different tastes (there were 6 of us). The staff were very attentive and friendly and we were not rushed to finish our meal as happens in a number of restaurants so we were able to relax and enjoy the evening.

Fantastic Italian restaurant just near Blackfriars station. Impeccable service from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. Food was amazing - authentic, perfectly prepared and beautiful fresh produce. Only downside was no hot chocolate on the coffee menu and I desperately wanted one with my delicious dessert!

Pleasant ambiance. Had to request the glass of champagne that was included in the deal. My scallops for starter were very good; my wife's beetroot & ricotta salad was OK. Her main of pork was very good; my veal was disappointing - very bland; came with potatoes & no vegetables. Zabaione pudding was a bit disappointing.

Amazing service and really great food. Not at all like your usual 'hotel restaurant'
